SPECIAL FEATURES
16384 bits Electrically Programmable Read Only Memory (EPROM) communicates with the economy of one signal plus ground
EPROM partitioned into 64 256-bit pages for randomly accessing packetized data records
Each memory page can be permanently write protected to prevent tampering
Device is an “add only” memory where additional data can be programmed into EPROM without disturbing existing data
Architecture allows software to patch data by superseding an old page in favor of a newly programmed page
Reduces control, address, data, power, and programming signals to a single data pin
8-bit family code specifies DS1985 communications requirements to reader
Reads over a wide voltage range of 2.8V to 6.0V
from -40°C to +85°C; programs at 11.
